Bug Description

I installed spl-dkms and zfs-dkms packages and found the inconsistency between module version number and package version after reboot the machine:

~ » dmesg | ag -i spl
[ 1.887214] SPL: Loaded module v0.6.5.6-1
[ 4.110435] SPL: using hostid 0x007f0101
------------------------------------------------------------
~ » dmesg | ag -i zfs
[ 1.898981] ZFS: Loaded module v0.6.5.6-1, ZFS pool version 5000, ZFS filesystem version 5
------------------------------------------------------------

I assume you are talking about the -1 not matching the -X of the debian package? If so, those aren't necessarily intended to match. The -1 comes from the META file in the upstream tarball. I suppose we could overwrite that with, for example, -0ubuntu9 in debian/rules. It doesn't seem very important to me.

I'd probably Won't Fix this.

Interestingly, the pre-built binaries in the linux-image-4.4.0-23-generic (version 4.4.0-23.41) are -0ubuntu1 for SPL and -0ubuntu3 for ZFS. I haven't looked at the package source to see where those are coming from.

So on second thought, maybe this could use some attention.
